I'm always up for re-reading my favorite Mary Stewart books. My most favorite is Madam, Will You Talk - I adore both the setting and the story. But closely followed by My Brother Michael, The Moon-Spinners, and This Rough Magic. And many others of hers are worth re-reading too, but in my limited time, it's those that I re-read when in the mood....

I'm more familiar with Jennifer Ashley writing as Ashley Gardner - as the author of the Captain Lacey historical mystery series, which I quite like. And I know she writes a shifter series as Jennifer Ashley. But I didn't know she has written a few Regency romances, and now here's the first one for free at Kindle US and UK...

The Ivy Tree was the first I ever read. and because it was inspired by Bratt Farrar, it put me on to Josephine Tey, another author I’m fond of.

Too funny
![]() I like those too, of course, just not at the tippy-top of my Mary Stewart list. Quote:
The Unknown Ajax (absolute favorite), The Grand Sophy, Beauvallet, The Talisman Ring, and of course, These Old Shades and Devil's Cub. But, as with Mary Stewart, I like almost all, except a very very few. Which reminds me, I haven't seen what used to be Sourcebook's annual "Georgette Heyer birthday sale" in a long time. I have most of Heyer's books in e-book now anyway, but just thinking about it made me realize I haven't seen that sale in several years ??? |

My favorite Heyer thus far has been The Corinthian which was fun. So, that said, Ajax was available at my library; I've downloaded it and will give it a go. I bought a bunch of Heyers in those Sourcebook sales, but Ajax wasn't among them. And I've also been aware that those sales ceased a while back. One more Heyer comment: I've read most of her mysteries and while they have some Golden Age appeal, they're not among the best of that subgenre. |

Totally agree with you on the mysteries...not bad, but not great.
Hope you like Ajax! Quote:

I've read and enjoyed a couple of Rachel Aaron's series, including her Heartstrikers (aka "nice dragon") series, and her DFZ series. Now she has a three-book spin-off to the DFZ series, called the DFZ Changeling series, and the first book, By a Silver Thread, is on sale at Kindle US for $0.99. And the whole series is KU if you have that, and thus binge-able if you like it!

Cross-post to the Audiobooks thread for a big batch of Ilona Andrews audiobooks on sale at Kobo US, UK, and Canada. Titles vary a bit by country, but there are currently 25 in the US, a few more in Canada, and less in the UK.
